i dun goofed - recurve in blade from sharpening

[rabbivj]

So im using my WEPS to reprofile my blade to fix an uneven bevel in the tip (which i did fix btw) but in doing so i think i may have put a slight recurve by the heel. So the heel is slightly higher than the rest of the edge. I didnt really find much as to fixing it, hence Im making this thread. What would be the best way to fix it on the WEPS?

To fix it you would have to remove metal from the rest of the edge to match the high spot. I DO NoT recommend doing this. I think you should just leave it and slowly correct it over the course of future sharpenings

I agree. Just leave it and fix over time with future sharpening.

While doing a complete hack job regrinding one of my CQC7Vs to a v edge I put a small recurve by accident too.

However that recurve doesn't hurt the knife for me. It is very slight so it doesn't bother me too much.

The recurve happens because you are grinding the section in front of the heel more than the heel.

To fix, cut into a stone grinding the edge flat then reprofile with more care to not re-introduce a recurve.
